The trio were at Legion Post No. 346, which was located at the site of the now defunct Rosen's Furniture store in East Stroudsburg. "I learn how to bowl there," wrote Carol A. Bryfogle, who is Reisenwitz's daughter.

The legion's alley opened its doors with four bowling lanes with two more added later, Bryfogle recalled. "I can remember them having PIN BOYS before they got the automatic pin setters," she wrote.
